Epistemology is a discipline that is responsible for studying the bases, methods and foundations of scientific knowledge; a discipline that studies the historical, social and objective context of the emergence of scientific knowledge, the criteria used to say if a piece of knowledge belongs to the field of scientific knowledge, and the concepts of truth, justification, corroboration and hypothesis, among others. Likewise, epistemology is also responsible for analyzing the nature of knowledge and how it is achieved with similar notions such as truth, belief and justification of the things that happen around us. Therefore, in the university environment, epistemology is important because it allows the student to understand how scientific knowledge is constructed and how its validity is justified. In addition, it will help you develop your critical skills in order to assess the quality of information you receive and to question the claims made in the academic field. Through this essay we will proceed to make a study on the epistemological considerations in university education. For this purpose, a bibliographical exploration was carried out regarding its importance in the student, university professor and knowledge from their environment. Finally, this will help the increase of a body of knowledge and in the same way it will contribute to the enrichment to display a whole critical reflection in the student through teaching in university classrooms.
